Second chance romance between two ex childhood best friends who may have secretly gotten married but left each other but are reunited again when their ownership stakes in a destination inn forces them to face each other. Hannah Rosentein should be happy, she's now the co-owner of the destination inn Carrigan's All Year, her happy place but unfortunately so is her first love, biggest heartbreak, and absentee husband, Levi "Blue" Matthews. Levi left Carrigan's to pursue his dreams of becoming a celebrity chef, and he has made it. He's famous, and he's proud to be the queer cook who made a name for himself yet his return is not as welcoming as he had planned, especially since his family is made at him, his best friend is dating his nemesis, and Hannah, his wife, wants him to leave... again. Levi and Hannah grew up as childhood best friends turned lovers, but Levi left when Hannah asked him to, and now he's back because she's asked him to come back but this time he wants to be back in her life permanently and he's going to do whatever it takes to prove it to her. Hannah and Levi want two completely different things but they can't stay away from one another, can they make it work this time? This is the spinoff book to the Seasons of Love (which I absolutely adored) but unfortunately this one didn't work for me. Hannah and Levi are suppose to be in their 30s but acted like teenagers, the miscommunication trope went hard on this one, and honestly they both just didn't really feel like they worked together that well. I didn't find myself liking or caring about their relationship all that much, which is so unfortunate because I adored the first book so much. If you like second chance romances with tons of miscommunication then this is for you!
